Artist: kid rock

We've been following the career of Lissie since all the way back to December of 2009, right around the time that the singer-songwriter released her five-song EP of soulful, sun-baked folk-rock called Why You Runnin' . Since then Ms. Maurus has dropped her full-length debut, an EP of radically rearranged covers ranging from Metallica to Kid Cudi to Lady Gaga, toured the world and played just about every major music festival around. Last week Lissie gave a preview of her yet-to-be-named sophomore album, which is rumored to be hitting stores this spring, by [...]

It's a little strange, but I don't know what's happening with all of the show announcements that have been pouring in this week: Limp Bizkit, Matchbox 20, Goo Goo Dolls and Kid Rock? It feels lik...

The country music influences that have underscored some of Sheryl Crow's finest work are about to become even more pronounced on the new album she's recording for Warner Music Nashville. The truth is that Crow's country radio airplay dates back to 2002 with her collaboration with Kid Rock on"Picture," followed by her solo version of Cat Stevens' "The First Cut Is the Deepest" and her contributions to Brooks & Dunn's "Building Bridges" and Vince Gill's "What You Give Away." More from here.  Filed under: Beats , [...]

Every eighteen months or so I find myself digging through my music vault in search of albums by the Records, Bram Tchaikovsky and Brinsley Schwartz. There's a certain nostalgic itch that can only be scratched by the power pop and pub rock of another era. Given everything that's transpired in the past three decades, it's impossible for today's musicians to match that gloriously naive sound. Or is it? Lonely Tonight , the latest release by Kansas City's Phil Neal & the Wornalls , is a pitch-perfect throwback to that [...]

When I was footloose and fancy free, music played a significant role in facilitating my romantic life. Their brilliant music wasn't the only reason I spent a lot of time listening to Michael Jackson and Prince. But even geniuses can get played out. The appeal of the Gap Band and Rick James diminished away from the dance floor. And there's only so much Lionel Richie and Luther Vandross a guy can take. I was on the prowl for new music that could set the mood even as it stimulated my brain. Enter Womack and [...]

A couple Saturday-night ideas for y'all: Kid Rock "Born Free," the 2010 Kid Rock song from the album of the same name, has so much going against it. It was Mitt Romney's official campaign theme song.… [ Read more ] [ Subscribe to the comments on this story ]

The Michigan bond between Bob Seger and Kid Rock is a deep one. Rock spoke at great length about his admiration for Seger in his recent profile in The New Yorker, and now this bond takes an extr...

Since going platinum eleven times over with Devil Without A Cause, Kid Rock has adopted the not-so-variegated guises of the Bullgod, Rock & Roll Jesus, the early morning stoned pimp and Detroit’s favorite son. With a style that’s equal parts rock and roll history lesson and multi-genre mash up, Kid Rock’s live shows tend to be a veritable jukebox of country, classic rock, metal, southern rock, hip-hop and rap. He covers enough ground that his presence on stage with Phish, Hank Williams Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Sheryl Crow and Reverend Run (of DMC fame) fail to even raise a quizzical eyebrow [...]

Before the holiday break, the godfathers of heavy metal, Led Zeppelin were bestowed a high honor with the US President Barack Obama presenting them with the Kennedy Center honors.

With 3 Pears , his first studio album of original material in seven years, Dwight Yoakam has reestablished himself as one of the greatest genre-blenders in music. Sure, the record won’t please country music fundamentalists, but it’s got a little something for everyone:  Hints of power pop, cowpunk, straightforward rock and roll, blues and beat music all abound here, signaling Yoakam is never going to be willing to follow the honky-tonk formula of Hillbilly Deluxe  again.  Yoakam’s lyrics shift plenty of gears too, as we go from the [...]

Rihanna finally tackles the Number 1 Spot on her 7th try. I can't be mad at it. I am NOT in love with the record as it feels a bit 'unfinished' for my taste. But with 237K+ records sold I am a minority!!! I will say the award still goes to Taylor Swift scanning 2 Million in just 5 weeks (with one of my top records this year). Two other notables, Kelly Clarkson , who just missed the top TEN by a thousand units with her Greatest Hits collection and Keyshia Cole with her [...]

New video for the song "Stand Up." Unrelated: Oli Herbert's beard is looking pretty bad-assed!

Filed under: The Hit List NBC via Getty Images Nicole Westbrook's song "It's Thanksgiving" has drawn plenty of comparisons to Rebecca Black's universally panned "Friday." But the 12-year-old viral video singer has learned one valuable lesson about the music industry: If you record a song about Thanksgiving, it stands a good chance of getting heard -- at least one time of the year -- no matter what the quality. Because while there are plenty of themed [...]
